Jeremiah 5:10-18

10GoH5927 ye up upon her walls, and destroyH7843; but makeH6213 not a full end: take awayH5493 her branches; for they are not Jehovah’s. 11For the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 and the houseH1004 of JudahH3063 have dealtH898 very treacherouslyH898 against me, saith Jehovah. 12They have deniedH3584 Jehovah, and saidH559, It is not he; neither shall evilH7451 comeH935 upon us; neither shall we seeH7200 swordH2719 nor famineH7458: 13and the prophetsH5030 shall becomeH1961 windH7307, and the word is not in them: thusH3541 shall it beH1961 done unto them.

14Wherefore thusH3541 saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, Because ye speakH1696 this wordH1697, behold, I will makeH5414 my wordsH1697 in thy mouthH6310 fireH784, and this peopleH5971 woodH6086, and it shall devourH398 them. 15Lo, I will bringH935 a nationH1471 upon you from far, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478, saith Jehovah: it is a mighty nationH1471, it is an ancient nationH1471, a nationH1471 whose languageH3956 thou knowest not, neither understandest what they sayH1696. 16Their quiverH827 is an openH6605 sepulchre, they are all mightyH1368 menH1368. 17And they shall eatH398 up thy harvestH7105, and thy breadH3899, which thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 should eatH398; they shall eatH398 up thy flocksH6629 and thy herdsH1241; they shall eatH398 up thy vinesH1612 and thy fig-trees; they shall beat down thy fortified citiesH5892, wherein thou trustest, with the swordH2719. 18But even in those daysH3117, saith Jehovah, I will not makeH6213 a full end with you.
